Steel-High defensive line standout Jordan Hill injured his left ankle during this morning's Pennsylvania Big 33 practice session and could miss Saturday's game.

Hill, a Penn State recruit, originally injured the ankle during basketball season this past winter. Speaking by cell phone as he watched this afternoon's practice, Hill confirmed this afternoon that he injured the ankle during the morning practice. His status for Saturday's game will be cleared up tomorrow.

"It's the ankle again, I just kind of rolled it,'' said Hill, who reports to Penn State at the end of this month. "It's swelled up a little bit but I just sprained it again.''

Hill said he doesn't expect to undergo any other testing on the ankle.

Hill is the second Pennsylvania player to suffer an injury during practice. Erie McDowell defensive lineman A.J. Fenton sustained an injury during a weekend practice, according to Big 33 spokesman Patrick McCloskey, and will miss the game.
